Equus Striping

🚧✨ Fresh, clear lines for your parking lot? We’ve got you covered in the DMV!

With temps in the triple digits in DC, staying hydrated and keeping cool is top priority! We provide our team with CamelBak wearable waterbottles.

No need to lug around cumbersome bottles, or keep up with where we last put it down when we're on the move. And as a company, we're always on the go! Sometimes, it's the little things that make a big impact.

Stay cool, stay safe, and stay alert on those DC roads friends!

This Independence Day, let's celebrate the strength in our diversity and the shared hope for a brighter future. ✨

It was such a pleasure working with Bruce Willen and the many, many individuals and organizations that helped bring the Ghost Rivers project to life in Baltimore. If you haven't already heard about this very cool project, please go check it out!

🌟 Celebrating Juneteenth with Pride and Purpose 🌟

So let's paint the town with rainbows, celebrate love in all its forms, and continue to champion equality for everyone, today and every day. 🌈✨ Love is love, and we love you for exactly who you are! Happy Pride!

Ever heard the term 'gore' in the world of road marking? Let's break it down!

The gore denotes no drive zones, traffic transitions, lane separation (space between bike and drive lane for example) or to alert drivers to an upcoming obstruction in roadway. 🚧

Why is it important? Well, this simple marking plays a crucial role in keeping our roads safe and traffic flowing smoothly. By clearly defining these merge zones, we're helping drivers navigate these areas with ease, reducing the risk of accidents and congestion. 🚗💨

From center lines to crosswalks to those essential gores, we're committed to keeping our roadways safe and efficient for drivers, cyclists and pedestrians.

Let's keep those roads safe together!

Happy Memorial Day!
